The heavens declare the glory of God, the skies proclaim the work of his hands. Psalm 19:1

The Andromeda Galaxy

The Andromeda Galaxy is the largest visible galaxy in the sky. It is visible to the naked eye from relatively dark skies. Together with it's companion galaxies M32 and M110 it is one of the most photographed galaxies. According the the SEDS website, Isaac Roberts obtained the first photograph of the Andromeda 'nebula' in 1887, but the first recorded observation was as early as 905 a.d.
